About Zorro
Zorro is a 1-year and 5-month-old male Staffy mix who has had a challenging start to life, arriving at the shelter severely underweight. Despite his rough beginnings and inadequate care, Zorro has shown an incredible capacity for love and affection.
With a soft and sweet personality, Zorro thrives on being close to people. He loves to be with his humans all the time and craves cuddles and companionship. This strong desire for closeness means he can experience a bit of separation anxiety, but his loving nature more than makes up for it.
Zorro has tested really well with other dogs, showing a timid demeanor that makes him a gentle and endearing friend. He would be a perfect companion for someone who can provide him with the love and attention he needs to continue thriving.
If you're looking for a loving, affectionate dog who just wants to be close to you, Zorro could be the perfect addition to your family

We are not open to walk ins, appointments by booking only. All households members must be present before we can adopt an animal out.
As our goal is to adopt animals out from the shelter into loving homes as fast as possible, multiple bookings may be made for the same animal.
We are not able to hold any animals for any reason.
As such, there is a possibility that the animal you may have found a forever home before your appointment. If this is the case we will inform you by phone call as soon as possible.
